The web design process typically involves four key phases: discovery, design, development, and delivery.
Discovery
We focus on understanding your projects requirements – by listening to you, and understanding
- what your goals are
- your target audience
- and your competition.
In this initial phase we conduct research and gather information which will define the project scope.
It is important to establish clear objectives and define key performance indicators (KPIs) very early on.
Design
Once the discovery phase is complete, we begin the design phase. This requires the creation of
- wireframes
- mockups
- and prototypes – so that you can visualise the layout and structure of the website.
We focus on creating a visually appealing and user-friendly design that will align with your brand identity and meet your projects requirements.
Development
In the development phase, we turn the design concepts into a functioning website. This involves
- coding
- programming
- and testing – to ensure that your website is responsive, accessible, and optimised for performance.
Our development work includes implementing features, functionalities, and interactivity based on the design specifications. We will usually integrate a web application or software that enables you to manages digital content and allows multiple contributors to create, edit and publish from a single dashboard.
This is referred to as the content management system (CMS).
Delivery
The final phase of the web design process is the delivery. This is where your newly completed website is launched and made live to the public. This involves us
- deploying the website to a hosting server
- conducting final testing
- and ensuring that everything is functioning as expected.
Once your website is live, ongoing maintenance and updates may be required to keep it running smoothly and up-to-date.
Overall, the web design process is a collaborative effort involving designers, developers, project managers, and most importantly you, to create an effective and successful website that meets with your expectations and the needs of your target audience.
Communication, feedback, and iteration are key components throughout each phase to ensure a successful outcome.
